Chapter 321: Changes in Fortune
Amidst a buzz of speculation and discussion.
The director of the Imperial Hospital suddenly remembered something, his legs went weak and he stumbled, shouting, "Your Majesty! The Concubine Shu is..."
"Shut up!" The emperor's face turned pale and he shouted at the court envoy.
His cold gaze slowly swept over the crowd, "Don't think I'm not punishing everyone! If anyone dares to say another word, I'd rather kill three thousand by mistake than let one go!"
The people were suddenly silent.
The emperor was furious. "I know you have many doubts in your hearts! But I watched Princess Mingzhu grow up! I am not a fool!
"Mingzhu has possessed extraordinary abilities since she was born! She could crawl at three months old, walk at six months old, and speak clearly at one year old! I saw the golden light appearing on her forehead when she was just born!"
"When she was one year old, I saw with my own eyes a small golden snake coiling around her! That was the snake god that only existed in legends!
"Can anyone tell me, if these don't prove Mingzhu is a lucky star, what else can?!"
There was silence all around and no one dared to speak.
The emperor's tone softened. "Even if Mingzhu isn't a lucky girl, she's still my own flesh and blood! I watched her emerge from her mother's womb, and I watched her grow up with my own eyes! She's the most honorable princess of the Dayu Dynasty, and no one can change this fact!"
"If anyone dares to disrespect the princess again and utters such disrespectful words as I did today, I will exterminate his entire clan!"
"Your Majesty, please calm down!" Everyone knelt on the ground.
If the people had to choose between the emperor and God, they would definitely choose God without hesitation.
After all...it's really hard to love an emperor without the guidance and support of the regent.
They didn't dare to say that what the emperor had just said was a lie, but they believed more in what they had seen with their own eyes.
Princess Mingzhu's daily actions, coupled with today's thunder, made it impossible for them to continue to regard Princess Mingzhu as a lucky star.
In other words, they didn't want Princess Mingzhu to be a lucky star at all.
The emperor's words just now showed that he was determined to be Princess Mingzhu. At this moment, their hearts sank.
"Let's go back to the palace!"
The eunuch's shrill voice sounded, and the golden carriage slowly began to move.
Civil and military officials followed in a line behind.
The monks also headed towards Lingji Temple.
The confused and helpless people stayed there with their hearts choking, not knowing what to do.
"What should we do? Will we pray for rain next?"
"Do you think the evil star that Zen Master Huineng mentioned is really dead? If it were dead, why would the Great Yu Dynasty be plagued by so many disasters?"
"What's the point of us making random guesses? These are not things that ordinary people should be able to discuss."
"If you say something wrong, your entire clan will be implicated! Shut up! Instead of chatting, why not go to the suburbs and fetch more water?"
The words woke everyone up from their dream and everyone slowly dispersed.
"Hey! Who made us poor? Aren't all the rich people going to Heihe Village to stay at the Ziyu Inn? I heard that Heihe Village is now very rich, and the money they earn is divided equally among the whole village!"
"We are all human beings, so why are the people in Heihe Village so happy?"
"We used to laugh at others who ate dirt! Who would have thought that now it's our turn to eat dirt? What a turn of events! Now, I dream of settling down in Heihe Village!"
…
It's true that comparing yourself to others makes you feel nauseous.
The capital city was in a state of chaos every day.
Heihe Village has good weather every day.
How can we have good weather and good harvest?
During the dog days of summer like this, it rains on time every day at noon, which directly extinguishes the summer heat and is so comfortable.
The inn was full of guests who came to escape the summer heat, some of whom even brought their families with them and were eager to settle down in Heihe Village.
It's no wonder they don't want to leave. In addition to the pleasant weather, comfortable inns, diverse food, simple folk customs, and first-class service... Heihe Village has so many other valuable things.
The people here are united and positive, dare to think and act, are enthusiastic and cheerful, and smile silly all day long.
Even if they are busy from early morning to late at night, they never complain, as if there is no worry or sorrow in their lives.
There are actually two schools in Heihe Village, and all the boys and girls in the village go to school.
What the guests found most incredible was that one of the schools actually had a girl as the teacher!
Although the female teacher's school was built outside the village, the school door was changed to open towards the village, so the guests had never seen the female teacher, but had only heard her voice.
A curious person once squatted in the corner of the female teacher's school and eavesdropped on a few classes. In the end, he concluded that this female teacher's teaching was no worse than that of the male teacher!
Heihe Village is such a magical place. Things that are impossible to happen in other places will not only happen here but also become extremely reasonable.
There are so many entertainment options in Heihe Village now. Let’s just say that almost all the famous performers and craftsmen in Ganning County have come.
After all, no other place has the guests in Heihe Village been as rich, generous, and arrogant as them.
These people flocked to Heihe Village and needed a place to live!
Since they couldn't afford to stay in an inn, they would go to the surrounding villages to ask for accommodation, paying ten or twenty cents per night for accommodation. As a result, the homestay business in the surrounding villages flourished.
Every day, when the villagers open their eyes, they want to make money! Lots of money!
…
On this day, the children had a holiday from school and came in groups to play outside the city gate.
Outside the village, it has become a bustling market with shouts and hawking sounds coming one after another.
There were people making dough figurines, blowing sugar figurines, making sugar paintings, selling kites, setting up stages for opera performances, walking on stilts, telling stories, and performing shadow puppetry...
The children were like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, dazzled and not knowing where to start.
The main reason is that the place changes too fast, it looks different every day. They haven't been out for more than ten days and they can hardly recognize it.
"Let's go shopping, let's go shopping! My dear, let's go shopping together!"
Following the soft and cute voice, a little baby in a tender pink shirt and two small buns came over.
One of his cheeks was bulging, obviously because he had a candy in his mouth.
"Sister, wait for your brother, don't fall!"
When Xiaowen and Xiaowu saw Xiaojiuer staggering among the stalls and vendors, they immediately followed her and held her hands.
"No, no!" Little Dumpling shook his head, "I want to play with my hands!"
Xiaowen and Xiaowu smiled. In just half a year, they had grown a lot taller and looked like older brothers.
"Sister, mother has already told us that there are many people outside the village who look at you. You are so cute, you might be kidnapped by bad people if you are not careful! So it's better to hold hands!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" The six little golden men behind him agreed.
"Xiao Jiu'er, I heard that the bad guys are very cunning. They will prepare colorful sacks specifically for accommodating cute little babies!"
"Xiao Jiu'er, you are so cute, you'd better be careful!"
"Okay!" The little dumpling obediently stretched out a fleshy hand, "Just hold a chicken!"
"Okay, hold one!" Xiaowen held her hand.
It didn't take long.
"Guoguo!" A babyish little voice rang out.
Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu: "Hey!"
Six Little King Kongs: "Hey!"
Little Jiuer has recently started to call "Daddy" and "Brother".
Although she always mispronounces the word "brother", whether it's "de di" or "guoguo", as long as Xiao Jiuer calls it, it sounds so cute and sweet.
"I want one!"
Xiao Jiuer pointed at the candy man.
"purchase!"
Eight voices rang out in unison.
